Detection of fumonisin producing Fusarium verticillioides in paddy (Oryza sativa L.) using polymerase chain reaction (PCR)
نویسندگان
چکیده
The study reports the occurrence of fumonisin producing Fusarium verticillioides in 90 samples of stored paddy (Oryza sativa L.) collected from different geographical regions of Karnataka, India. Fumonisin producing F. verticillioides was identified based on micromorphological characteristics and PCR using two sets of primers. One set of primers was F. verticillioides species specific, which selectively amplified the intergenic space region of rDNA. The other set of primers was specific to fumonisin producing F. verticillioides. Eight paddy samples were positive for F. verticillioides. Eleven isolates obtained from these samples were capable of producing fumonisin.

Genetic diversity and identification of fumonisin-producing isolates of Fusarium verticillioides from two provinces in the Philippines were analyzed using molecular techniques. Using a Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)-based technique, 49 of the 54 isolates were identified as F. verticillioides, with an amplified product of 800 bp using VERT-1 and VERT-2 primers. Of these, VERTF-1/VERTF-2 primers...

Fusarium verticillioides (F. verticillioides) is not only a primary pathogen of maize, but also can causedisease in other crops such as sorghum. Pathogenicity is related to mycotoxin production such as fumonisin.In the present study, 24 isolates of F. verticillioides, which were previously identified by phenotype basedmethods, were re-identified using restriction fragment length polymorphism (R...

A polymerase chain reaction (PCR) based diagnostic assay was used to develop markers for detection of Fusarium verticillioides (=F. moniliforme), a fumonisin producing fungus in maize tissues. Species-specific primers were designed based on sequence data from the polyketide synthase (PKS) gene (FUM1- previously FUM5) responsible for fumonisin production in fungi. Four sets of oligonucleotide pr...

In order to determine the fumonisin producingisolates of the Fusarium fujikuroi species complex (FFSC), associated with infected spikes, and ear rot of grass plants, we examined 78 samples collected from Kermanshah province, Iran. Based on morphological characters, twenty two isolates assigned to the FFSC and were identified as F. proliferatum (ten isolates), F. verticillioides (seven isolates)...
